APPLICATIONS You may use this product for the following purpose: Charging RYOBI 40 Volt lithium-ion batteries CAUTION: If at any point during the charging process none of the LEDs are lit, remove the battery pack from the charger to avoid damaging the product. DO NOT insert another battery. Return the charger and battery to your nearest service center for service or replacement. NOTICE: Charge in a well-ventilated area. Do not block charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper ventilation. CHARGING See Figure 1, page 7. Battery packs are shipped in a low charge condition to prevent possible problems. Therefore, you should charge them before first use. If the charger does not charge your battery pack under normal circumstances, return both the battery pack and charger to your nearest repair center for electrical check. Charge time varies and is dependent upon the amp hour capacity of battery pack. Make sure the power supply is normal household voltage, 120 volts, AC only, 60 Hz. Connect the charger to a power supply. Attach the battery pack to the charger by aligning the raised ribs on the battery pack with the grooves in the charger, then slide the battery pack onto the charger. Press down on the battery pack to be sure contacts on the battery pack engage properly with contacts in the charger. Latches should snap into place to ensure charger is correctly connected. Do not place the charger in an area of extreme heat or cold. It will work best at normal room temperature. The battery pack will become slightly warm to the touch while charging. This is normal and does not indicate a problem. After charging is complete, the charger LED will stop flashing and remain green. To remove the battery pack from the charger, depress latches and pull up on the battery pack. Fan will make a slight humming noise when the battery is charging. CHARGING A HOT BATTERY PACK When using a tool continuously, the battery pack may become hot. A hot battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature cools to within acceptable temperature range. When a hot battery pack is placed on the charger, the orange LED will be on and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack cools, the charger will automatically begin charging. CHARGING A COLD BATTERY PACK A cold battery pack may be placed directly onto the charger port but charging will not begin until the battery temperature warms to within acceptable temperature range. When a cold battery pack is placed on the charger, the orange LED will be on and the green LED will be off. When the battery pack warms the charger will automatically begin charging. 4 - English
